Cooking Measure Converter
Convert common recipe volumes and weights with ingredient-aware density assumptions and copy-ready output.
Enter a recipe amount, choose the source and target measures, and select an ingredient when converting between volume and weight. The conversion stays in your browser and shows the density assumption used for ingredient-dependent results.
Use a decimal, mixed fraction, or fraction such as 1.5, 1 1/2, or 3/4.
Only volume-to-weight and weight-to-volume conversions need an ingredient density.
How it works
The converter normalizes recipe volumes to milliliters and recipe weights to grams. Volume-only and weight-only conversions use defined unit relationships, such as 1 US cup = 236.5882365 mL and 1 pound = 453.59237 g.
When a conversion crosses between volume and weight, the selected ingredient supplies an approximate grams-per-milliliter density. These values are practical kitchen estimates, not lab measurements. Flour, cocoa, oats, and brown sugar can change noticeably with packing, sifting, grind, humidity, and measuring technique.
Use the output for recipe scaling, grocery planning, prep notes, and quick comparisons. For nutrition labeling, commercial production, allergens, medical diets, or food-safety work, confirm weights with a scale and the source recipe or product specification.
